The volunteer’s marriage is falling apart because of him
AAP leader Kumar Vishwas
NEW DELHI: DCW chairperson Barkha Singh said, “It is the same volunteer who has been coming to us for quite some time now. He (Mr Vishwas) should come since the complainant is his own party volunteer. The volunteer’s marriage is falling apart because of him, she has alleged.”
Despite the woman’s claims that her complaint to police commissioner B.S. Bassi was ignored, Delhi Police said it had registered an FIR on April 29 under IPC Section 509 (insulting the modesty of a woman) and Section 67A of the IT Act.
The woman said, “Just because of this allegation (of an illicit affair with Mr Vishwas) my husband has left me. I have two kids. I come from a middle class family where they feel that since Kumar Vishwas is AAP spokesperson and a known face, maybe there was something between the two of us. I am unable to explain. That’s why I want Kumar Vishwas to clarify the matter, but he didn’t.”
She also sought police protection citing an alleged threat call from a certain “close aide” of Mr Vishwas. “I received a call at around 10.30 pm last night and I was threatened. The person who made the call stays with Vishwas and manages his party work. Since I have been threatened, I would also want police protection. However, I haven’t made any formal demand in this regard yet because the call came late at night,” she said.
350 Maharashtra members quit AAP:
Opposing the expulsion of Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav from the AAP, 350 party members in Maharashtra quit on Monday. The fissure was inevitable as supporters of Mr Yadav and Mr Bhushan from Maharashtra had hinted earlier that they might resign and set up a new organisation or party. Maruti Bhapkar, AAP leader, led the workers in the mass resignation programme in Pune.
